42 So Moses mustered, just as Yahweh had instructed him, every firstborn among the sons of Israel.

44 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying.
45 Take the Levites instead of every firstborn among the sons of Israel and the beasts of the Levites instead of their beasts. So the Levites become Mine:I am Yahweh.
